In hindsight, Saturday evening was a bad time to go. The bar was very noisy and staff understandably stretched. This meant the service was lacking and we had to chase up missing sides.
The fillet of beef was delightful and there was nothing wrong with the children's sausage dinner. However, the "famous" chicken wings were really disappointing - covered in far too much sauce and bloody within. I mentioned this and pointed out the blood in every wing I'd bitten into but was promptly dismissed and told that wasn't possible as the wings were precooked. Left more than half on my plate.
I'd have gladly shared this feedback but at no point during or after the meal were we asked how it was. The answer? A mixture of delicious and inedible. Wife definitely won with her choice.

Lovely place right opposite the railway station. Had a lovely Sunday Brunch with beef roast as the main course. Service was excellent and the waitress took extra effort to take care of our needs. We spent about 3 hrs there and the place was packed. Highly recommended.

Recently moved to Dorridge and have been a few times. It seems to a local favourite, particularly on Sunny days. The service can be hit or miss. However, the food on a Sunday was very good, It was well cooked. As was the starters and Deserts. My only gripe is why is there inconsistency vs the midweek as the food midweek is very average compared to on Sunday, the produce also seemed to be different. As a example, the waffle for Desert was freshly made with a different recipe compared to breakfast.

Delicious chicken burger, not sure about the kimchi, though. It wasn't to my taste. Service was accommodating and efficient. Key lime pie was also delicious. Large portions. Would definitely come back.

Wow - how was everywhere else fully booked and this place wasn't? Incredibly tasty food, reasonable price, nice indoor and outdoor seating and super friendly staff.
We had Ramen, the kebab and the pizza. The pizza was cooked in wood oven and tested great. My son even eat all the crusts too. The Ramen was great, crab, prawn and haddock.
Will definitely be returning here in the future. 5*s
